    China hacked Clinton's server

    Almost sounds more like Hellary handed them "the keys to the city".

    Jacksonville Shooter had a strong case of Trump Derangement Syndrome

    Disagree. I don't see it as a "conundrum". If as a society we are going to exclude certain members from their 2A rights... because of reasons we believe to be appropriate... we must accept that reasoning. We can't hold every exclusion hostage to the notion, "perhaps this time was wrong".

    Jacksonville Shooter had a strong case of Trump Derangement Syndrome

    What? Someone would avoid seeking treatment for a mental disorder because he knows it might disqualify him from buying a firearm? Those are EXACTLY some of the people who shouldn't have access to guns. 2A says "right to bear arms shall not be infringed". Should we make an exception for those...

    Relative Volume

    I know you're not going to like hearing this, but you did ask for help. At its best, volume is coincident with price. At its worst, it's contrary/conflicting to price. Overall, it's irrelevant. However you try to include volume in trading decisions (except "size" concerns), your results will...

    Does any broker allow unprotected put options in a UTMA account?

    In a UTMA account, you have "fiduciary responsibilities". There are certain "not alloweds", just as in IRA*s. It's not a matter of "does broker allow?". It's a matter of the laws/rules and not up to a broker in most cases. *Not exactly the same. In self-directed IRAs, you're "allowed" to...

    Made a lot of progress, but feel like there's so much more to go...

    Have given some thought to this, and one might could do it. In the stock indices you can have a "few-to-several" trades per day, depending upon how tightly you want to play things. I doubt one could trade 10 markets that way, but perhaps you could if you played only (1) significant support and...

    Made a lot of progress, but feel like there's so much more to go...

    You probably don't want to hear this or want to believe... but I got it, "right off the bat" to a degree... enough to be immediately profitable. All started from recognizing the merit of the 20 day MA cross at a time when it correlated. That was my intro to TA.

    Intraday does not make sense.

    You insist on stupid talk, so ON IGNORE!! (Not angry at you or anything, but you obviously have nothing of value to say, so why bother reading what you post?)

    Zero Commissions At Firstrade

    Ditto. If the broker is not making money from commissions, he has to make it somewhere else to stay in business. Best know what that is if you're a customer or potential one. Typical/possible income resouces for the broker... commish, fees, spread, "float" on your money, selling your personal...

    Intraday does not make sense.

    If you care to be taken seriously on ET, you need to cease with the stupid talk.

    Intraday does not make sense.

    Violent? What gives you that idea? "Ruined"? I'm actually rather wealthy. (Got that way by trading the markets, if you care to know.) You claim, "it can't be done". My wife's shoe closet begs to differ. What's your bag?

    Intraday does not make sense.

    See post #19. Sour grapes. If you're convinced "it's impossible", then don't concern yourself. Just don't bother considering, thinking, or posting about it. It's all a waste of your time.

    Intraday does not make sense.

    Ditto. Trading short-term and long-term... EXACTLY the same principles. Short-term is much busier and requires more attention.... but can be very rewarding if done well, not to mention enhanced risk control. As for anyone who claims, "it can't be done".... sour grapes.

    12-year-old Detroit girl severely burned attempting 'fire challenge'... Darwin Award candidate?

    Pelosi, Schumer, DeBlasio, Waters, Cummings, Hellary, Odumbo, Soros... just for starters
